Movie Reviews of Life in Cold Blood

Movie Review: FORMIDABLE!!
Summary: 5 Stars

Another winner! All previous reviews say almost everything that has to be said about this wonderful DVD to convince a buyer to purchase it. For reptile lovers, this is the BBC's top production and probably the only one featuring Mr Attenborough speaking exclusively on cold blooded creatures. From the other reviews it is not clear what kind of animals are filmed, well the answer is simple: All kinds of the reptiles and amphibians participate in this fascinating documentary; from frogs, caecilians and geckos through crocodiles, snakes and turtles. Absolutely stunning!. If you liked the series from "Planet Earth", "Blue Planet" or "Life in the Undergrowth", this DVD is for you. The BBC's missing documentary on animals is finally here; enjoy the cold blooded creatures. It deserves a ten star rating, indeed!

Movie Review: A masterpiece of the beautiful and bizarre
Summary: 5 Stars

David Attenborough has done it again with this incredible showcase of the reptile and amphibian world, revealing all sorts of unbelievably colorful species in all of their glory, as well as some bizarre and unusual mating and survival behaviors that were probably little known until now outside of scientific circles, let alone filmed for a major production. This may be just what is needed to elevate the "charisma factor" of these humble but intriguing creatures in the popular imagination so they can finally get the respect and protection that they deserve.

A masterpiece; must viewing for reptile lovers or for anyone interested in the more unusual life forms with which we share the planet.

Movie Review: David Attenborough does it again!
Summary: 5 Stars

I got this set for my husband who has all the other David Attenborough collections. We all sat and watched it together and we all loved it. This one didn't gross me out like "Life in the Undergrowth" did. Looking close up at bugs grossed me out, especially watching slugs. This one was more about cold blooded animals, and their way of life. The Attenborough walk through, is wonderful. I am really glad I got this DVD. We now own Attenborough's complete set of Mammals, Birds, Undergrowth, Blue Planet and this wonderful set too. You can't go wrong buying any of these wonderful sets of educational information. Our whole family loves these DVD's.

Movie Review: Great Documentary
Summary: 5 Stars

Life in Cold Blood is an amazing documentary. Sir David Attenborough's excitement about all living things is very apparent and transfers to the viewers. The film also has behind the scenes segments after the traditional documentary footage, which gives a perspective of what scientists and conservationists are doing to study, help protect and save critical habitat for these wonderful organisms. As a student studying ecology this film made me more excited to continue what I am doing and gives me hope that others may become as excited with all manners of life as Sir David Attenborough and I.

Movie Review: Wonderful
Summary: 5 Stars

Beautiful images of reptiles. Even better than Planet Earth, since this documentary focuses on a particular group of animals and explains their odd living and feeding habits. The chameleons are absolutely mesmerizing. I came away from watching this wanting a pet chameleon or turtle.

My only regret is that the program is too short. It combines turtles and crocodiles into a single show. Fortunately, snakes get a single episode, and there is some amazing footage of a python eating a deer whole.
